IoT applications have been being moved to the cloud during the last decade in order to reduce operating costs and provide more scalable services to users. However, IoT latency-sensitive big data streaming systems (e.g., smart home application) is not suitable with the cloud and needs another model to fit in. Fog computing, aiming at bringing computation, communication, and storage resources from “cloud to ground” closest to smart end-devices, seems to be a complementary appropriate proposal for such type of application. Although there are various research efforts and solutions for deploying and conducting elasticity of IoT big data analytics applications on the cloud, similar work on fog computing is not many. This article firstly introduces AutoFog, a fog-computing framework, which provides holistic deployment and an elasticity solution for fog-based IoT big data analytics applications including a novel mechanism for elasticity provision. Secondly, the article also points out requirements that a framework of IoT big data analytics application on fog environment should support. Finally, through a realistic smart home use case, extensive experiments were conducted to validate typical aspects of our proposed framework.

Big data analytics, cloud computing & internet of things are a smart triad which have started shaping our future towards smart home, city, business, country. Internet of things is a convergence of intelligent networks, electronic devices, and cloud computing. The source of big data at different connected electronic devices is stored on cloud server for analytics. Cloud provides the readymade infrastructure, remote processing power to consumers of internet of things. Cloud computing also gives device manufacturers and service providers access to ―advanced analytics and monitoring‖, ―communication between services and devices‖, ―user privacy and security‖. This paper, presents an overview of internet of things, role of cloud computing & big data analytics towards IoT. In this paper IoT enabled automatic irrigation system is proposed that saves data over ―ThingSpeak‖ database an IoT analytics platform through ESP8266 wifi module. This paper also summarizes the application areas and discusses the challenges of IoT.

The implications of the digitization process among a bevy of trends are definitely many and memorable. One is the abnormal growth in data generation, gathering, and storage due to a steady increase in the number of data sources, structures, scopes, sizes, and speeds. In this chapter, the author shows some of the impactful developments brewing in the IT space, how the tremendous amount of data getting produced and processed all over the world impacts the IT and business domains, how next-generation IT infrastructures are accordingly getting refactored, remedied, and readied for the impending big data-induced challenges, how likely the move of the big data analytics discipline towards fulfilling the digital universe requirements of extracting and extrapolating actionable insights for the knowledge-parched is, and finally, the establishment and sustenance of the dreamt smarter planet.

The internet of things (IoT) generates large amounts of data that are sent to the cloud to be stored, processed, and analyzed to extract useful information. However, the cloud-based big data analytics approach is not completely appropriate for the analysis of IoT data sources, and presents some issues and limitations, such as inherent delay, late response, and high bandwidth occupancy. Fog computing emerges as a possible solution to address these cloud limitations by extending cloud computing capabilities at the network edge (i.e., gateways, switches), close to the IoT devices. This chapter presents a comprehensive overview of IoT big data analytics architectures, approaches, and solutions. Particularly, the fog-cloud reference architecture is proposed as the best approach for performing big data analytics in IoT ecosystems. Moreover, the benefits of the fog-cloud approach are analyzed in two IoT application case studies. Finally, fog-cloud open research challenges are described, providing some guidelines to researchers and application developers to address fog-cloud limitations.

With the advent of the Internet of Things (IoT), many different smart home technologies are commercially available. However, the adoption of such technologies is slow as many of them are not cost-effective and focus on specific functions such as energy efficiency. Recently, IoT devices and sensors have been designed to enhance the quality of personal life by having the capability to generate continuous data streams that can be used to monitor and make inferences by the user. While smart home devices connect to the home Wi-Fi network, there are still compatibility issues between devices from different manufacturers. Smart devices get even smarter when they can communicate with and control each other. The information collected by one device can be shared with others for achieving an enhanced automation of their operations. This paper proposes a non-intrusive approach of integrating and collecting data from open standard IoT devices for personalised smart home automation using big data analytics and machine learning. We demonstrate the implementation of our proposed novel technology instantiation approach for achieving non-intrusive IoT based big data analytics with a use case of a smart home environment. We employ open-source frameworks such as Apache Spark, Apache NiFi and FB-Prophet along with popular vendor tech-stacks such as Azure and DataBricks.


Every business organization needs valuable data and insights for understanding audience intent and consumer’s likings. Big data in this acts as a significant part as it supports in precede the needs of customers for which the data needs to be well presented and appropriately analyzed. Big Data permits organization to segregate customers in broad way which permits a business to hold consumers in a real-time, as in this tough competitive time you need to treat customers how they want. In simplified term “Big Data is a mix of processes and tools by which huge data grid through various form with each other and enormous amount of heterogeneous and rationalized information is created which in addition, used to figure out the utmost valuable customers. It also provide assistance for businesses to innovate, create and pitch new experiences, services, and products. The availability of such information creates opportunities for organizations. The paper here discusses about big data elements, its maintenance, handling and storage of varieties of big data by organizations and gains of big data analytics to organizations. The paper also analyze about the velocity of data generated and analysis of big data by organizations to understand its impact on organization working and consumer decision respectively. The paper also gives avenues for future research by explaining the application and practices of organization in the era of big data analytics.
